| First puppy born now I think somethings wrong Lily just had a puppy and she hasn't delivered the placenta. When she delivered, a bag a water followed. Is that blocking the way for the placenta? I had to cut the cord or else she'd still be dragging the puppy around. Wasn't much cord out to work with. She panting a lot but doesn't look like she's having any contractions. Any help for me?

| I panicked. As soon as I hit submit, she delivered another baby. All looks good.

Yep, totally normal. You might take a paper towel and grab ahold of the cord and with gentle pressure pull the placenta out instead of cutting. Be sure to pull downward towards her belly. The bag of water is to lubricate the birth canal and normal too Good luck! | |
